CAPITAL AND LABOR.

The Labor Field has been carefully kept open not only encouraged, but the very worst foreign pauper labor has been contracted for and i'm ported, in order that competition would cheapen the cost of labor and force it to accept any price offered while EVERY AVENUE OF COMPE- TETON HAS BEEN EFFECTUALLY CLOSED IN THE INTERESTS OF MONOPOLIES AND MANUFACTURERS, CORPORATIONS AND CAPITAL.

A few days & two prospectors, while
wandering over the foothills east of the
city, accidentally stumbled on signs of
previous habitation buried under heaps of
sand which had been drifted by the winds
OF years. Having selected a point at
which TO make IN excavation, they went
TO work with n will, and in a few hours
had reached the floor OF a small chamber
In the form Of a parallelogram. They
found the remains of several human be-
ings, several handsome vases carved with
geometrical figures in different colors,
stone axes, hammers, pisces OF cloth ap-
Parently manufactured from the fibre OF
the yucca; several strings of beads, sea
shells, arrow heads and an abundance of
fragments OF obsidian quartz, and an In
credible quantity of pieces of broken pot
terry, Including several with a blue glaz-
ing. Only In one other instance have we
ever heard OF this color and quality of
ware having been discovered in this terri
tory, and that was Mt the ancient pueblo
near the Santa Rita, in this country, and 1t
indicates that the Spaniards had lived in
New Mexico before the extinction of the
race who inhabited this ruined and buried
village.-Socorro Bullion.

iEc Duke of Portland gave the price,

which It is now one of the chief orna,
ments. Some time afterward n demented
fool, anxious to gain au unenvinble noto

patience, been placed together again, 50

Is now carefully protected In the gem

lGr the watchful eye of the blue cmbodi-

The body OF the vase is of clear glass of
Il deep sapphire color, md the cameo dec.
Grafton, which is in high relief, is n white,
Opaque glass. The subject of the superb
ornamention is supposed to be the mar
riagc Of Pcleus and Thetis, though there
ST m&2y opinions upon this point. The
vase when first made was entirely covered
with q thick coating of opal glass, which
has been carved away by the hand Of the
s,Ilptor Just as he would have treated a
gem. For II long time, indeed, the vase
was considered TO be u work in some mag
niicent kind OF s%ardunyx. BY the varin-
ton of the thickness of the white layc.,
gained by the differences of the depth Of
relief, most beautiful tones of color are
produced. Even on the bottom of the
vase there is carved in low relief the
beautiful head Of q man in II Phrygian
cap. This piece WINS not replaced when
the shattered vnse was restored, but was
mounted. for purposes OF easier inspec-
ton, by the side of the vase itself-Mag-

Four style. of Canal Boats.

1t requires intellect to build a canal
boat, even If it doesn't seem so. A canal
boat never hurries, and people who think
they know everything believe that speed
Is the only thing that requires meditation.
Canal boats are built for what they can
hold.
There are four styles of them-bull-
heads, lake boats, scows, steamboats, and
consorts. The bullhead is the everyday
canal boat which impedes the ferries. The
laker is a size larger, and can stand n sea.
The scow is an old acquaintance, but the
steamboats, and consorts are new. They
have come to revolutionize boating and
Danish the mule.
There are 1900 canal boats in commits
sion on the state canals They keep about
l,4OO men and boys busy during the sea
son, and pay them $50 to $50 n month
and feed. Boats travel Us n rule doubled
up-that is, with their two teams pulling
both boats.-New York Sun.

THE NATIONAL OPERA COMPANY
Its Eduipment-Ca Needed 10 Trans
port Tits sCcncry-Its Magnitude,


Its Equipment Cars Needed 10 Trans
rort tits sccnery-iis Magnitude
Some idea Of the magnitude Of the
National Opera Company may be OBJ
tanned when It Is stated that to trans
port the company aud Its equipments,
a train Of twcntyfour cars Is required.
From Master Of Transportation Nolan,
who has entire charge of this branch
of the company, It was ascertained
that ten passenger coaches carry the
principals, chorus and ballet, and the
remaining fourteen are used for trans.
porting the baggage and equipments
Of the company. There are 30j per.
sons, all told, in the company, includ.
ing 100 in the chorus, ninety In the
ballet and sixty.fivc In the orchestra.
When the company moved It's scenery
and costumes from Boston to Fall
River, each piece of baggage was
weighed separately and the total
weight was found to be upwards Of
100 tons. Before entering a city an
advance agent usually goes ahead
three or four days to make arrange.
mcnts for the accommodation OF the
company at hotels and 1t Is quite an
army TO look after. Accompanying
the people of the organization are Jl3
trunks, containing private wardrobes,
and GOO large packing cases, contain
ing the costumes and other outfittings
for an opera.
Fifty men in the baggage cars ar.
range the scenery in the order that 1t
Is TO be used, and rs soon rs town Is
reached every piece Is at hand and
ready for transfer TO the theatre.
Take the "llugucnots" for instance.
The curtain had scarcely dropped on
the last act Monday night ere corps
of stage lands hurried the scenery
down stairs, where 1t was loaded on
trucks and the vacancy supplied with
Faust scCm.ry for last night, all of
which was in position by noon yester
day. All the scenery and properties
used by the company is carried with 1t,
and twenty-five skilled carpcn
ters from New York are also
"A part of the necessary equipment
of this aggregation. AT Worcester,
Mass, on one occasion, the company
hu'i W uIICul III tli w"
was not fortunate enough 10 possess a
stage; hut the talent from the bench
was equal to the emergency, and by 4
O'Clock in the afternoon new and
complete stage was In readiness
and smoother performance was
never given by the company.
II requires the services of thirteen
drcsscrs to look after the preparation
of principals, chorus and ballet for the
stage. Faust is the most popular
opera in the repertoire, but It requires
twice as much stage preparation as any
of the others, the scenery for this play
requiring two cars alone. When an
opera is completed at one town the
scenery is Immediately shipped to the
next stand, and there Is never hitch
in performance, even If the company
should be delayed until few minutes
befort the curtain was ready 10 be rung

lsascIpnlI Notes,

The American Association anticipate com
menclng It's championship season about tue
middle OF April.
Burdock is trying hard to get away from
the Boston Club, but the more the other
clubs bid for his services the less inclined
President Soden seems to be to release him.
The championship season OF the Southern
League will not commence this year until
May !, which will give them ample oppor-
tunity for spring exhibition games with
Northern clubs.
The Detroit people seem to think that as
Gore is the only addition to the team from
last year with the exception Of a few young
players who have ,e, to he tried, the New
ioiks have no particular reason to expect
higher place iu 1887 than they held In
1856.
The Boston players will not he required to
sign the pledge, as President Soden thinks
that all that will be necessary will he to In
form them April that drinking will not be
tolerated, anu the man who imbibes, how
ever light, will be iiued very heavily for the
ofleuse.
The Providence element Of the Washing
ton Club-liincs, Shaw, Gllligan aud Car
roll-are still holding OF for more money
than the club management Is willing to pay.
Either one or the other will give In before
the opening Of the season, aud the general
impression is that 1t will he the players.

.SuI,urban" Notes.

The weights for the Suburban Handicap,
the greatest Of American races, were pub
lished in the New York papers yesterday.
Books will now be opened.
Good Judges say that the Dwyers will
never think of starting Fremont at 1lG
pounds. He will be barely turned 8 years
when the race is run, and the chances are
that he would be ruined with such a
weight.
Savanac, who ran third In last years
Suburban, is promising one this year, and
is in at 100 pounds.
Nolante is In at l27 pounds, but his per-
formances during the latter part OF last
season hardly Justify great expectations.
"Black and Blue" OF the New York Nail
and Express will give his excellent pointers
on the races this season as last.
Blue Wing has be come the great tip.
When Captain Brown bought him it was
given out that he would be the Suburban
winner. Troubadour will probably not
start.
II would he hard TO find better col
